Phones capable of international roaming are not locked.

So, does that mean my V400 was/is unlocked when I purchased it from Cingular
in Los Angeles?

If they are unlocked they are not necessarily Cingular phones now are they?

But I don't know what condition Cingular sells the phones though. Sorry!

I just got off the phone with a Cingular rep in the Orange County, CA area.
She told me my Moto V400 phone was locked and the only option available to
me was to enable my phone for international roaming.

NOT!

I guess they don't want to acknowledge the existance of other service shops
that will unlock your phone for under $40. <grin>

Talked to an engineer at Cingular this morning. Seems like MD is right.
The V400 phones ae shipped unlocked from the factory and Cingular does not
lock them.

That sounds great!

Does anyone know if this is true for all world phones sold by Cingular? I
am especially interested in knowing about the Nokia 3200. Thanks.
